Chapter 58: The Tiger Roars and the Wolf Disappears
Chang'an Taiji Palace.
At the Shuowang Dynasty meeting, Li Yuan listened attentively to the reports of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs, especially the reports of the members of the Imperial Party, and nodded incessantly, extremely satisfied with Li Shimin's recent worksheet, impeccable.
In particular, in the development of economy and agriculture, we have made great progress. Li Shimin did not completely reject the system of uniform land and the regulation of rents because they were the systems proposed by Li Jiancheng, but vigorously supported the system of equalizing fields and the regulation of rents, and made improvements in these two systems with excellence, and the results were even more significant.
In terms of the ability to govern the world, Li Shimin may not be able to defeat Li Jiancheng, but as a winner, he has a more perfect platform than Li Jiancheng. When Li Jiancheng was in power, the three powers competed, and the interests of the imperial party, the interests of the princelings, and the Qin Wang party had to be considered in everything. The political struggle is the most hurtful to the foundation of national strength, and Li Jiancheng is afraid of this and that, and there will be certain problems in the implementation of policies.
However, Li Shimin annexed the core members of the princeling party at this time, and became friendly with the imperial party, which can be said to be unified, and the implementation of the system was exceptionally smooth. At the same time, Luo Shixin brought hundreds of thousands of sheep, 10,000 war horses and thousands of cattle for the Tang Dynasty, which greatly reduced an unnecessary expenditure, and the economic recovery was much smoother than planned.
Li Yuan was impeccable, said some scenes, and announced his retreat from the dynasty.
Li Yuan returned to the west hall of Taiji Palace with his front foot, and the news of Li Shimin's request to see came from behind.
Li Yuan couldn't wait to invite Li Shimin in, and before he came to the nearest place to salute, he asked, "But there is news from Shuofang?" â
He is not completely ignorant of things outside the window, and Luo Shixin is his favorite son-in-law. He still cares a lot about every move. Especially these days, there is a lot of movement in Shuofang. First, the Ashina tribe perished, and Shuofang surrendered. It was the impeachment of Luo Shixin again, and the invasion of the Golluq tribe...... This kind of thing happens one after another. As for Luo Shixin, who is the center of the matter, Li Yuan is a little worried that he is too young to deal with it, so he is very worried about it, and asks about the situation over there from time to time. also told Li Shimin that he should inform him in time if he has accurate news.
Li Shimin didn't mess up the number of etiquette, and greeted him first. Fang Cai said: "Father's worries are superfluous, my brother-in-law is doing well in Shuofang...... No, he got 6,000 ploughing cattle from the Turks, which directly solved the problem of spring ploughing in Shuofang. â
"Six thousand?" Li Yuan was surprised. This Turk is not rich in cattle. Six thousand ploughing cattle is an astonishing number, "How did he do it?" â
Looking at his stunned father, Li Shimin smiled bitterly and explained the situation in detail, when he first heard the news, his expression was almost the same as Li Yuan's.
In this way, he obtained six thousand ploughing oxen from Tuli and Golulusili by forceful means. Four thousand war horses. â
Li Yuan's stunned mouth couldn't close, and he cut off his ears at every turn. The means are not ordinary ferocity, but in the face of such ferocious and humiliating means, it is really incomprehensible that Tuli and Gelulu Sili obediently handed over the cattle and horses.
Li Shimin said with emotion: "Transferring my brother-in-law to the north is really the most ideal choice. The Turks are like insatiable hungry wolves, they are fierce and greedy, and they have no moral justification. And the brother-in-law does not play cards with common sense, and his methods are extremely fierce, and he is a tiger who is more ferocious than a hungry wolf. The hungry wolf is insatiable, and in the face of the fierce tiger that is pressing them down, they can only obediently obey the order. There are many famous generals who conquered Saiwai, but such as his brother-in-law, who scared Jieli away with his name and shadow, he was the only one who subdued Tuli. â
Li Yuan also came over suddenly, this Turk has always eaten hard rather than soft, and when he encountered a hard stubble tiger like Luo Shixin, he was naturally eaten to death.
After figuring out this link, Li Yuan laughed aloud: "I have Shixin in the Tang Dynasty, this tiger, why worry about the arrogance and rampant Turks. â
Li Shimin said: "Now that the tiger is still recuperating in the mountains, it is making such a noise. When the time comes, the tiger will come out, and it will be the end of the Turks. â
Li Yuan thought about that situation in his mind, and then thought of the life when he had to think about the Turkic compromise for the sake of the Tang Dynasty, he felt strangely happy, looked at his calm son, and made a decision in his heart.
The day when the Turks were pacified was ......
**********
Jieli escaped, Tuli bowed his head and compromised!
Luo Shixin's prestige spread again in the grassland, and in the face of Luo Shixin, who was guarding Shuofang, the Turkic tribes in Shuofang all chose to retreat and leave the grassland on which they depended.
Even a large tribe like the Golulu, after suffering a big loss, chose to move the tribe twenty miles north to shorten the distance from Shuofang.
There is a poem called: "But make the dragon city fly, do not teach Humadu Yin Mountain".
It is very suitable to describe this moment, but Luo Shixin is more thorough. The meaning in the poem is that as long as there is Li Guang's storage zĂ i in Longcheng, Huma Huns will not be able to defeat Yinshan. And Luo Shixin is now sitting in Shuofang, and all the surrounding Turks are frightened, and they have retreated, not daring to approach the Shuobei grassland for half a step.
According to the Turks, a horse did not dare to enter the country, so as not to be targeted by the "unreasonable" Luo Shixin.
Since Luo Shixin succeeded as the governor of Gyeongju, the Turks near the territory of Shuofang have not been at ease for a moment, and today even Jieli and Tuli have chosen to retreat, and other tribes of all sizes are embarrassed, all of them run faster than the rabbits on the grassland.
Looking at the movements of the Turkic laughing tribe, Luo Shixin had a feeling of wanting to cry without tears, and almost jumped up and scolded his mother.
"Don't be ashamed, let Lao Tzu train anymore!" Luo Shixin was depressed and had the feeling of shooting himself in the foot, where did he think that the Turks proved that they were not frightened, and ran directly to the Gobi in the depths of the grassland. Now he wants to find a tribe to train his troops, but he can't do it by fighting: the Turks have run too far, and they have all transferred the tribes to the depths of the Mongolian steppe in the north, where Luo Shixin is unfamiliar, and there are still interactions with each other. With a guerrilla army of thousands of miles on an expedition, there is no way to solve the problem of food and grass, and even Luo Shixin does not have the courage to go deep alone in such a situation.
"General!" Su Dingfang looked at the angry Luo Shixin, he didn't know how to comfort him, he just thought silently in his heart, when I encounter a battle maniac like the general, I will run far away.
After being annoyed for a while, Luo Shixin had to accept this reality, and secretly rejoiced: "Fortunately, morale has been raised, and there is no need to rely on victory to motivate morale." Thinking of the current situation on the grassland, Luo Shixin also temporarily put aside the idea of nourishing the war with war, and after sending someone to send Zheng Liwan back to Chang'an, he lived in the military camp north of Shuofang, focusing on training the combat elements of the border army.
The skill competition was also carried out on time according to the agreed skills...... (To be continued......)
